Have a virtual superday coming up. Obviously, I am prepping thoroughly as if it was in-person and would not be able to reference anything. However, if there was a case where I needed to quickly reference a few bullet points to an answer or two on a word doc, do you think the interviewer would notice? Curious if anyone else has done this.

People definitely notice and it's not worth it. Don't be lazy and memorize the bullet points
Do not do this, it's obvious both in your eyes clearly reading something and voice changing. Better to walk through as best you can and show your thought process than to reference notes.
Would recommend just memorizing your talking points. However, if you feel tempted, position your word doc on top of your screen and have your video screen underneath it. Don't sound like a robot and you'll be fine.
